TCP/UDP library bindings?

[packetmixer]

it would be fun!

[Spydr06]

Which library are you thinking of? All the basic networking functions are already implemented via linux syscalls.

[packetmixer]

maybe this? https://github.com/starwing/znet

[Spydr06]

That would be a way to do it. The only problem is that this library is not installed on linux systems by default (maybe precompile?). I'd rather use the builtin library from glibc/musl, but they use structs with bitfields, which CSpydr doesn't support. Finally there would be the option to just write it from scratch, which I'll probably do someday, but currently the stdlib is too minimal for something like that...

i think i might attempt to use that library in cspydr (i assume i do [link("the compiled library here")] right? )

[Spydr06]

yes, exactly. But that could lead to errors when the path is not correct, try using absolute paths or install the libraray in /usr/lib. I'm really happy to see someone use my language btw! :) Let me know how it's going

[Spydr06]

So, how‘s it going? Any news?

[Spydr06]

Closing this because of lack of activity. Reopen when any progress is made.

[packetmixer]

hey Spydr, i have started working on them at here

[packetmixer]

the "binding" stuff is in the namespace internal, and the stuff the developer is gonna use is outside it

[Spydr06]

That's good, that's also how I do it since CSpydr lacks private functions

[packetmixer]

ah, yeah; the test will be updated soon!

also, i plan on either making a minecraft server (using the tcp stuff) or something else
